How Much is That Comet in the Window? - March 27th, 1996.

"The above true-colour photo taken March 25th, 1996, shows Comet Hyakutake passing below the stars of the Big Dipper. Many astronomy enthusiasts delight in helping people in their local community see comets, this one in particular. Both Jerry Bonnell and Robert Nemiroff from APOD were so inclined - both then and when Comet Halley came by in 1986. During these sessions, many good questions are asked and occasionally a humorous situation will arise. One was with a little girl. She waited so patiently for her turn to look through the telescope, hardly able to contain her excitement. Finally her turn came.

"Do you see the comet?" Robert had asked.

"Wow, wow, WOW!" She beamed.

"You see it?"

"No."

One little boy seemed particularly bent on destruction. "This telescope looks like a big gun," he volunteered.

"In some ways, it's even more powerful than a gun," Robert replied, hoping to challenge his imagination.

"Really?" he countered. "Can we shoot down the comet?"

"How expensive is the telescope?" is a fairly common question. But one time a real business-person showed up and, possibly feeling particularly affluent, asked "How much is the comet?""

SPACEMAS DAY 12 ✨🪐🌎☄️☀️🌕

What are these two giant arches across the sky? Perhaps the more familiar one, on the left, is the central band of our Milky Way Galaxy. This disk of stars and nebulae appears to encircle much of the southern sky. Visible below the stellar arch is the rusty-orange planet Mars and the Andromeda galaxy. But this night had more to offer! For a few minutes during this cold night, a second giant arch appeared encircling part of the northern sky: an aurora. Auroras are much closer than stars as they are composed of glowing air high in Earth's atmosphere. Visible outside the auroral arch is the group of stars popularly known as the Big Dipper. The featured digital composite of 20 images was captured in mid-November 2022 over the Lofoten Islands in Norway.
